Intro: GCDCGAm
She was just sixteen and all alone
When I came to be
DC
So we grew up together,
G
My mama child and me
Now things were bad and she was scared
C
But whenever I would cry
D
She'd calm my fears and dry my tears
CG
With a rock and roll lullaby
And she'd sing...
Chorus:
GAm
Sha na na na na na na na na na it'll be alright
CDG
Sha na na na na na na na na na now just hold on tight
(Sing it to me mama)
GAm
Sha na na na na na na na na na it'll be alright
CD
Sing it sweet and clear, oh Mama let me hear that old
CG
Rock and roll lullaby
Solo: GAmCDCGGAm
We made it through the lonely days
But Lord the nights were long
D
And we'd dream of better moments
CG
When mama sang a song
G
Now I can't recall the words at all
C
It don't make sense to try
D
Cause I just knew lots of love came through
CG
In that rock and roll lullaby
And she'd sing...
GAm
Sha na na na na na na na na na it'll be alright
CDG
Sha na na na na na na na na na now just hold on tight
(I can hear ya mama)
GAm
Sha na na na na na na na na na it'll be alright
CDCG
Nothin' eased my sole like the sound of a good ol' rock and roll lullaby
